Hi Christina-- I'm sorry you're going through this. One good thing you've already done is reach out on this forum.
First your conselor's totally wrong. Get ahold of your pdoc ASAP and let them know what's going on. Different combinations of meds work differently for different people, and it's kind of a crap shoot finding the right combo. I was on Wellbutrin and lamotrigine, and it wasn't doing it. Then I added in Abilify, and it made all the difference in the world.
A second thing I'd suggest may sound odd, but it really helps. Find something to laugh about every day. Whether it's a sitcom, a movie, a silly clip on the internet-- it doesn't matter, so long as it makes you laugh.
Thirdly, try to take even a short walk every day. Even if it's only 5 or 10 minutes, walking is another one of those things that can help make a difference.
Meanwhile I'm sending you good energy. Please keep posting and let us know how you're doing.
